Margot Frank
Older sister of Anne Frank and Holocaust victim (1926–1945) / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Margot Betti Frank (16 February 1926 – c. February or March 1945)[1] was the elder daughter of Otto Frank and Edith Frank and the elder sister of Anne Frank. Margot's deportation order from the Gestapo hastened the Frank family into hiding. According to the diary of her younger sister, Anne, Margot kept a diary of her own, but no trace of it has ever been found. She died in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp from a typhus outbreak.[2][3]
